    A new Heterodontosaurus specimen elucidates the unique ventilatory macroevolution of ornithischian dinosaurs

    Viktor J Radermacher, Vincent Fernandez ... Jonah N Choiniere
    A new specimen of Heterodontosaurus elucidates how ornithischian dinosaurs evolved a body plan substantially different from that of other dinosaurs and what these differences meant for their breathing.

    Convergence between the microcosms of Southeast Asian and North American pitcher plants

    Leonora S Bittleston, Charles J Wolock ... Anne Pringle
    Host characteristics drive the assembly of similar communities within the convergently evolved and geographically distant pitcher ecosystems of carnivorous pitcher plants.

    Resting mitochondrial complex I from Drosophila melanogaster adopts a helix-locked state

    Abhilash Padavannil, Anjaneyulu Murari ... James A Letts
    Molecular structure of mitochondrial complex I from Drosophila melanogaster reveals a structural element not seen in other organisms to date that may regulate the transition between an off-pathway resting state and the active state of the complex.

    A survey of open questions in adaptive therapy: Bridging mathematics and clinical translation

    Jeffrey West, Fred Adler ... Alexander RA Anderson
    Open questions of cancer adaptive therapy are discussed through the lens of mathematical modeling, categorized into three sections, (1) integrating appropriate components into mathematical models, (2) dosing protocol design and validation, and (3) challenges and opportunities in clinical translation.

    Philosophy of Biology: The meanings of 'function' in biology and the problematic case of de novo gene emergence

    Diane Marie Keeling, Patricia Garza ... Anne-Ruxandra Carvunis
    A lexicon to help scientists and philosophers discuss the meaning of function in molecular biology more clearly is proposed.

    Gaze patterns and brain activations in humans and marmosets in the Frith-Happé theory-of-mind animation task

    Audrey Dureux, Alessandro Zanini ... Stefan Everling
    Shared traits in gaze patterns and brain activations between marmosets and humans during Theory of Mind animations reveal cross-species cognitive similarities.

    Demographic reconstruction from ancient DNA supports rapid extinction of the great auk

    Jessica E Thomas, Gary R Carvalho ... Michael Knapp
    Reconstruction of great auk population dynamics suggests that hunting pressure alone could have been responsible for their extinction, demonstrating that even abundant, widespread species can be vulnerable to intense exploitation.
